“I tried to call for help.” Lin Zhenzhen interrupted him, tilting her head. Although she was smiling, the smile was faint.
"Have you forgotten? When we first encountered the monster tide, how many communication talismans did Wei Wu crush to call for your help? I waited and waited, until my spiritual energy pool was depleted, but I still couldn't get your help."
"I was because..." Xuan Yuanzhao's explanation was interrupted.
"Of course, I wouldn't dare blame you." Lin Zhenzhen lowered her head, her stray hairs falling to the sides, obscuring her expression. "I'm just an ordinary disciple, you're the young sect leader, we're different."
